Guest guest Posted October 19, 2011 Report Share Posted October 19, 2011 Hi all. My name is Liz, I'm a certified Raw Milk dealer from Millbrook, NY. I have been dairying here in Millbrook for almost thirty years, but decided to go exclusively to raw milk July 2010. It has been going very well. Inspector inspect, but they do not hassle me. My customers are a lot of fun to talk to. I milk approx. 20 cows. A mix of holsteins, jersey, Ayrshire, Brown Swiss, and a Linebacker. I fully welcome visitors to come in the barn, watch milking, pet the cows and calves, and help with chores if they want! Not gonna make a million bucks, but its a priceless experience. NYS allows certified dealers to sell raw milk from the farm.From: "RawDairy " <RawDairy >To: RawDairy Sent: Sunday, October 16, 2011 5:19 PMSubject: File - To all LURKERS Dear Raw Dairy Lurkers (those who read but have never posted their own self-intro): We are glad to have you on Raw Dairy...but if you have not yet sent in your "self-intro" to the whole group, you have not completed the membership requirements for joining this group.
